If the screen is dirty the sensitivity will decrease. Take a lint free cloth and wipe off the screen to remove debris. There also might be a problem with your screen protector if you have one.

If the game isn’t working, try to shove a thin piece of cardboard or perhaps even a clothing tag in along with the game. It worked for my original DS, which I got for free because the game wasn’t showing up when the system turned on. Note that this seems like a horrible option, but it honestly worked for me after a few tries and putting the game in a certain position in the game slot. Also note that this was an ORIGINAL ds system, so it may not work for a 3DS, but if all else fails, try this BEFORE attempting to take the ds apart!!

So that Nintendo 3DS part on the top screen has been short circuited for a few months after it had fell to the floor within the car. I had sold the 3DS XL back to Gamestop as the Nintendo 2DS with 3DS Cartridge Slot, since only the Nintendo 2DS function still works. It’s sad that the 3DS function had died due to a short circuit. Weeping.
